Studio Make: Sculpture

In the class Studio Make, our task for half a semester is to create an abstract sculpture using wood, chicken wire, condoms, and paper maché. I decided to make my sculpture have some aspects of representational art as well as it to be abstract. I started with a four legged figure as a base and I wrapped it with chicken wire but I decide not to make a head so it could be more abstract. In replacement of the replacement of the head, I had a bunch of vines coming out of the figure looking like it is being consumed by greenery. As the weeks passed, I was required to incorporate more materials such as food from the wood shop and condoms to paper maché. Personally, my favorite part of the piece was the whittled wood detailing or the chicken wire and the wood shavings weaved into the material. 



Experimental Drawing: Final

 For our final in Experimental Drawing, we had the total of nine different prompts that we had to mix and match to create three different pieces that worked as a triptych four our final project. Our pieces were inspired by the sculptures we created in our other class Studio Make.
